Frequently Asked Questions

Is a drone inspection as good as going up on the roof?

For condition checks, often yes. For tracing a leak, hands-on inspection is usually needed.

A temporary tarp or make-safe can be done in most weather. Permanent repairs need dry conditions, especially for flat roofs and lead work.
